Small Wonders Issue 2

5 stars

I enjoyed everything out of Small Wonders Issue 2. Usually magazines with a bunch of pieces are hit and miss for me, but Small Wonders continues to consistently resonate for me. This one was especially good.

Here are my three most favorites from this issue (with extra trans bias this time):

"I don't think it's weird to want your body to be different than it was before," Lex says, wry smile beautiful.

A story about support in changing your body to become something else, through the help of plants. Not a trans story, but big trans vibes.

I shouldn't be the one who has to leave my life behind.

Annie drives a taxi and hears the call of people who need to escape; she brings them to a reverse Lethe bridge, where everybody else forgets about them once they've crossed over it through the fog.

Marnie seeks a return, to regain Paradise. For me, on Saturdays, we are already there.

The Snow Queen and her servant, trapped in another realm, go thrifting together to try to find what they need to get home.
